In a second grade class containing 13 girls and 10 boys, 2 students are selected at random to give out the math papers. what is

the probability that the second student chosen is a boy, given that the first one was a girl?

The fact that the first chosen student was a girl is already decided, so there is no need to find the probability of that happening. There are a total of 13+10, or 23 students. A girl was already selected, so that leaves 22 students. The chance that a boy is chosen is 10/22, or 5/11.

Which are linear pairs? Check all that apply.

boyakko [2]

Answer:

Options B, C and D

Step-by-step explanation:

Linear pair of angles means sum of the angles of the pair is 180° which are formed at a point of a line.

In other words, pair of supplementary angles is the linear pair.

From the figure attached,

Pair of the linear angles are,

1). ∠BAC and ∠CAD

2). ∠BAE and ∠EAD

3). ∠EAD and ∠DAC

Therefore, Options B, C and D are correct.

Tomorrow, Mrs. Wendel's class will be using toothpicks for a science project. Each student must use at least 9 toothpicks for th

Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Number of toothpicks required per student = At least 9

Total number of students = 30

Number of toothpicks required for the entire class = At least 9 × 30 = At least 270

Number of toothpicks in the bag in the class storage room = 50

Additional number of toothpicks required to be bought to make sure there are enough toothpicks = 270 - 50 = 220

Hence, she needs to buy 220 toothpicks.

Given that Ray E B bisects ∠CEA, which statements must be true? Select three options. m∠CEA = 90° m∠CEF = m∠CEA + m∠BEF m∠CEB =

FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

Here is the question attached with.

$m\angle CEA =90 \ (deg)$

$m\angle BEF=135\ (deg)$

$\angle CEF$ is a straight line.

$\angle AEF$ is a right angled triangle.

Options $1,4,5,6$ are correct answers.

Step-by-step explanation:

⇒As $\ ray\ AE$ is ⊥ $FEC$ so it will forms right angled triangle then $m\angle CEA =90\ (deg)$ .

⇒Measure of $\angle BEF =135\ (deg)$ as $\angle BEF =\angle AEB +\angle AEF = (45+90)=135\ (deg)$ as $\angle AEB$ is the bisector of $\angle AEC$ ,meaning that $\angle AEB$ is half of $\angle AEC$ so $\angle AEB = 45\ (deg)$ .

⇒ $\angle CEF$ is a straight line as the angles measure over it is $180\ (deg)$ .

⇒Measure of $\angle AEF = 90\ (deg)$ from linear pair concept.

As $\angle CEA + \angle AEF = 180\ (deg)$ ,plugging the values of $m\angle CEA =90\ (deg)$ we have $\angle AEF = 90\ (deg)$ .

The other two options are false as:

$m\angle CEF=m\angle CEA + m\angle BEF = (90+135)=225$

it is exceeding $180\ (deg)$ whereas $\angle CEF$ is a

straight line.

And $m\angle CEB=2(m\angle CEA)$ is not true.

As $\angle CEA = 90\ (deg)$ and $\angle CEB=45\ (deg)$

So we have total $4$ answers.

The correct options are $1,4,5,6$ .
